Nano Banana AI capabilities

From first idea to final edit

Four core capabilities cover the image workflow: generate from text, edit an existing image, preserve references, and create text-led graphics.

Text to image

Generate a complete image from a clear brief.

Describe the subject, composition, lighting, lens, material, mood, and aspect ratio. The Nano Banana AI image generator turns that direction into a complete visual for campaigns, products, editorial work, or social content.

AI image editor

Edit the image without starting over.

Tell the Nano Banana AI image editor both what to change and what to preserve. Replace a background, remove an object, change clothing, adjust light, or refine one detail without rebuilding the composition.

Edit an image

Reference consistency

Carry the same subject into a new scene.

Use one or more reference images to guide identity, products, outfits, locations, composition, or style. Preserve recognizable details across storyboards, campaign variations, and product visuals.

Create with references

Text and layout

Create readable text and structured layouts.

Use Nano Banana Pro for posters, labels, menus, diagrams, mockups, and localized graphics where in-image text and layout matter. Quote exact copy in the prompt and check final spelling before publishing.
